New here. I bought a DF-02 Gravel Hound for my son, and a TT-02b Dual Ridge for myself this past christmas. His first "real" RC car, and the first one I have had since I was a kid myself. Have not done a lot of mods on the Dual Ridge yet, other than swap out the Torque tuned for a Sport tuned, and replaced all of the crappy plastic bushings with sealed metal bearings.
On the DF-02, also threw in a Sport tuned motor, and upgraded the shocks with oil filled damper shock as well as replaced the front shock tower with an aluminum one. The car handles soon much better with the improved shocks and aluminum shock tower. Unbelievable difference.
Also running Proline Dirt Hawg tires on both rigs, which so far seem to be a good all around tire for running on the street and around the yard.
Anyway, just looking to for a place to learn more and get answers to questions.
